Historia
Golden Globe-winning actor Michael C. Hall (Six Feet Under) performs Truman Capote's masterstroke about a young writer's charmed fascination with his unorthodox neighbor, the "American geisha" Holly Golightly. Holly - a World War II-era society girl in her late teens - survives via socialization, attending parties and restaurants with men from the wealthy upper class who also provide her with money and expensive gifts. Over the course of the novella, the seemingly shallow Holly slowly opens up to the curious protagonist.

Revisado: 11-30-16
I never liked or disliked the story. I watched The movie so many times. I thought Holly would have more character. Her personally was disappointing, as well as her disappearance.
No reflection on Michaels reading it was great.
Unlike " In Cold Blood" this was not exciting.

It is a society that is, officially, a paradise. Superior to the decadent West, Stalin's Soviet Union is a haven for its citizens, providing for all of their needs: education, health care, security. In exchange, all that is required is their hard work, and their loyalty and faith to the Soviet State. But now a murderer is on the loose.

Well Harry Potter has come to an end. Or a new beginning. This was one of her best novels. Like "The Goblet of Fire and The Half Blood Prince" the story explodes. One of my favorite character does not survive. Most of us read the books Jim Dale makes you hear them again and again.

Historia
The last novel completed by Jane Austen before she died at 41, Persuasion is often thought to be the story of the author's own lost love. Sir Walter Elliot of Kellynch Hall has three daughters: Elizabeth, who shares his haughty vanity and, at 28 has found no one good enough to marry; Mary, who has, with some condescension, married the son of the local squire; and admirable Anne, who "was nobody with either father or sister".

I love this story. Agatha's adventure in the ladies room, made me laugh so hard; passing motorist thought I was insane. None of the characters can steal a sene from Agatha. She's inquisitive as Miss Marple with the tenacity of Kinsey Millhone. All readers over the age of 45 will enjoy the way she stumbles into solving crimes. CSI look out 😉

MY FAVORITE BOOK!!!!!!!!
Revisado: 09-04-14
If you could sum up Pride and Prejudice in three words, what would they be?
Wonderful, Romantic and Witty
What was one of the most memorable moments of Pride and Prejudice?
What I say to my children and grands when they cry ( as babies) "Nobody knows how much I suffer" ...the babies words not mine.
What do you think the narrator could have done better?
Ms Fox interpretation was good I listened to better performances
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
I made me mad when I was younger, I read this story multiple times. I have also listened to it just as many times. I makes me laugh especially Mrs. Bennet; my favorite character.
Any additional comments?
If you ever want to listen to a great story this is the book!!!! You will get lost in the mayhem of the Bennet Family. The young ladies started women"s lib long before it began.
